Letter: Servants of God

Sir: On 12 July you reported a Court of Appeal decision refusing a Church of England curate the right to take his case for unfair dismissal before an industrial tribunal on the grounds that God was his employer (and presumably dispensed His own justice).

Today (21 July) I read that a dean is likely to be paid pounds 250,000 in return for his resignation from the same organisation.

God certainly still moves in a mysterious way.
